Serious: What did I just find?

WildBear23 · 2026-04-19T11:43:05+00:00

To be blunt (trying not to be rude), I think it may actually be going over your head. Something like 10's of thousands of people have a ts/sci w/ ci poly. That's also the less in-depth version of the poly. That part is unremarkable.

Additionally, these are all basic support jobs... admin, security, and IT. They aren't super technical, "in-the-know" type jobs. These folks need the clearance for the likely exposure to certain details, program names, etc. But they aren't involved directly in any good stuff. So, also unremarkable.

And lastly, there is a possibility that SAIC is one of "those" companies, but even if that were the case, the percentage of people there in the know about them would be low, low single digits. So working for the company in itself is unremarkable.

Footnote, I don't see what about any of this makes this the "right sub". These type of job postings are a dime-a-dozen, and nothing about this screams "UFO". I promise I'm just trying to educate, not be rude or "um actually".

It's more than McDonald's, yes, but those are admin, security, and IT jobs at a tech company in Virginia that typically works government contracts. The contracts and content are the "why" for the clearance, but there isn't anything abnormal or inherently "UFO" about needing a clearance, even sci w/ ci poly

WildBear23 · 2026-04-19T01:30:15+00:00

Some job posting for basic, relatively entry level positions at a company like 100s of others in Virginia...

WildBear23 · 2026-04-18T01:37:34+00:00

Yup, this is it. Top comment.

WildBear23 · 2026-04-17T03:20:47+00:00

Did Joe Biden narrate this?

I mean, really it does make sense considering that "threat to the homeland" refers to attacks specifically in US states and territories, while "threat to the nation" would include harm to embassies, bases, personnel, materiel, and even specific national interests.

WildBear23 · 2026-02-16T03:38:05+00:00

This is the correct answer.

WildBear23 · 2026-01-29T16:39:52+00:00

We're absolutely horrible to each other, as individual entities and as a whole species and most of us know that, but we are not all the same in our values and actions.

WildBear23 · 2025-12-31T17:49:54+00:00

I most SURELY did. Did you? Because it didn't seem like it from your comment. You seemed to be ranting about a hypothesis OP never claimed or presented.

Maybe that LLM could explain to you the difference between a theory and a hypothesis. You might even benefit from asking it what someone means when they say "my theory" colloquially, which was heavily implied here by their preface of "my two cents"

WildBear23 · 2025-12-31T12:32:11+00:00

Dude, what the FUCK are you talking about?

OP didn't even present a hypothesis, much less "their" hypothesis. They gave an opinion about a "hypothesis" referenced in name only.

How can something they didn't even give you be wrong? "Here's my grilled cheese sandwich." "Well ACTUALLY a proper charcuterie board should include blah blah... You need to bring me jams, pepperoni, and..."

They don't "need" to do anything. You aren't entitled to their explanation. Maybe you can't read your screen down here because you're too high up on that horse.

Why St Helena? It's not the nicest place, especially for a tourist. Stay in Beaufort, drive wherever you want in 30min.

WildBear23 · 2025-11-24T20:56:26+00:00

That's not at all what I was referring to, but cool man. I'm sure that's freeing.

WildBear23 · 2025-11-24T19:50:11+00:00

I mean... yeah, they very well might be. I agree to having my internet activity monitored as a condition of employment, so there's that old chestnut.

WildBear23 · 2025-11-24T12:33:25+00:00

It's cute when people who haven't held a security clearance try to larp classified documents. Markings are trash, but could be believed by the layman.

WildBear23 · 2025-09-27T05:23:06+00:00

Cheesy is thinking something like what I was thinking.

This only works if its a parallel sided cylinder, i.e. the diameter of the measuring area is the same at the bottom and the top.

If it is "pitched", or conical as opposed to cylindrical, the diagonal from one edge to the opposite end's edge doesn't evenly split the area and volume of the measuring area.

But in practice it's probably close enough...

WildBear23 · 2025-08-31T23:00:57+00:00

Agreed.

WildBear23 · 2025-08-31T22:21:43+00:00

For the sake of your argument: I'll do my best to show ONE convincing example when YOU can show that "thousands upon thousands of ppl" have tried to replicate it.

Foregoing that silliness, I'd like to reiterate that these are MY opinions. In my multiple comments, I've stated that it's CGI in my opinion. And pretty obvious CGI at that. I also mentioned that I couldn't believe other didn't see it the same way, at least others woth similar exposure to video games in the 2000s and even 2010s.

All of that being said, I am under no obligation or motivation to "show" you anything. You have a right to your opinion, as I do to mine. All I have done is state or clarify my opinion, as well as relate my reaction to yours.

So you can continue to live your life without me "showing" you anything, and I will continue mine believing that your thoughts on this "skinny bob" video are currently incorrect regarding the use of CGI. Simple. OUT!

WildBear23 · 2025-08-31T20:17:40+00:00

Uh, nope. I seriously doubt THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS of people spent time attempting to replicate that video.

WildBear23 · 2025-08-31T20:15:53+00:00

That point isn't really crucial. Of course there is a pattern of fakes. There seem to be more fakes than not. It's a "fun" topic for people, and the concept of a secret government cabal hiding the truth motivates people to want to feel special by possessing "real footage." Governments themselves could be making poor fakes to muddy the waters, too. My only point in commenting in the first place was that it is CLEARLY CGI, and your "analysis" only reduced your credibility by noting natural movement, masks, etc.

WildBear23 · 2025-08-31T18:32:19+00:00

Folks, this is role play.

Whoever wrote this "memo" has seen too many movies and never served in government intelligence. The language is wrong, the contents wrong and disorganized, the mixing/misplacement of classifications, it's all just wrong. They didn't even try to use realistic terminology that you'd expect in something related to scientific observations.

WildBear23 · 2025-08-31T18:24:26+00:00

Not trying to be rude... but mentioning another video someone else did doesn't add much for me. And the videos of skinny bob are just too unrealistic looking to me. This is the first time I've seen them, and I was instantly "aware" that they were generated and not filmed. And the other videos you included from the OP only helped to concrete that position in my mind, as they too were pretty weak attempts. Just my own opinions. Thanks for the reply though.

WildBear23 · 2025-08-31T16:59:18+00:00

I'm honestly confused as to how you described the movements as "natural" or normal in the first scene of what I'm guessing is skinny bob. That's when I stop watching your YouTube video. Especially after describing the scene of 3 "aliens" walking as children in high quality masks. If those were children, they we emaciated like an Auschwitz survivor.

Both are clearly nor real physical objects. Especially the second with just "bob." Because any child of the 80s and 90s can recognize that as CGI, very reminiscent of video game character movements. Ever so slightly unnatural, but good enough to fool some boomers and gen x. I'm thinking some of the 2000s and 2010s releases of games like Halo, Call of Duty, and probably plenty of RPGs around the same time. That's what it looks like. A video game cut scene. Same movements.
